maaco paint

[R34 94 EX]

ive heard many things about maaco paint, i hear it sucks because they use stage 1 paint, which is paint and clear mixed, but then again i hear it sucks because the use scotch bright pads to do the prep work, so im not sure what to do, if i take it to maaco i can get my whole car painted, if i take it anywhere else i can just get the kit painted. i can do all the prep work myself so thats not a problem.

My friend got his truck painted at maaco..the thing is....the paint job sucks
they blotched painted really bad in some spots, so I wouldn't trust them with my car:no:

yeah, you really do get what you pay for. i am just painting it black but i might as well save up and get it done right.

so what you think is a reasonable price for a good paint job, full car, door jambs, clearcoat?

try painting it yourself if you have the time. I plan on painting mine in a month.

back in the day when i had my 89 accord the goldish color i got it painted at maaco just cuz someone rear ended me and i had some money to play with.. it wasn't too bad.. the color wasn't quite as good as the honda color.. but it did it's job.. if it's an older car thas just a daily driver i'd do it with them.. but not on something you like.. ya know?

yeah, well ive got a few options right now, id ont think maaco would be very good painting on bondo and since my door is gonna have a large amount of that on it maybe i shouldnt
